Description: When the Aston Martin Rapide was first launched in early 2010, it immediately made the Porsche Panamera look even uglier. Today the British automaker continues to prove that its four-door luxury GT Ra...

Richard NicholsJan 25, 2013@ Carl that made me laugh! What a goon! To be fair Aston martini, as he put it, may well be Australian!

Colby ChurchJan 23, 2013I think the Panamera and Rapide both look good, I would drive either, but I prefer the Rapide. I saw one a couple days ago and it looked great. When I see a Panamera I don't get the same excitement, but it's still a nice car.

Cory DeinesJan 23, 2013That being said, the Panamera is offensively ugly whereas the Rapide is easily one of the best looking sedans ever produced. The new Panamera estate is much prettier, but it still can't compete with the Rapide when it comes to looks.

Cory DeinesJan 23, 2013Wow. A lot of people on here who don't know what they're talking about. The Porsche Panamera is NOT an SUV. It's a sedan, and an extremely capable one at that. In regards to performance, it will wipe the floor with the old Rapide.

Mark Fei LingJan 23, 2013Buy a second hand rapid, a lot cheaper than original tag, low miles and makes you look good.

JB KolodJan 23, 2013Panamera is not stupid and is also a Porsche. If Porsche only made the 911 they'd go out of business or the 911 itself would get cheaper and more retarded every generation. Selling other (great) cars that are class leading is a better alternative.

Jacob BurfordJan 23, 2013I wouldn't be surprised if it looks better in person!

Wyatt GordonJan 23, 2013I honestly prefer the old grille, but this still looks good

Brandon HarpJan 23, 2013@Colby, I agree, the larger grille reminds me of the one-77, and I loved that car

Colby ChurchJan 23, 2013I don't know why so many are hating on the larger grill, I think it looks much meaner and cleaner without the grill separation. I like it. I think the grill is an improvement, and obviously so do the people on Aston Martin's design team. :)

Jt CollierJan 23, 2013i like that its distancing itself from the vanquish and vantages, it looks more burly and brutish yet still beautiful

Ryan HavertyJan 23, 2013It's the same size grill except they took out the strip of sheet metal where the license plate went to allow the engine to breath better.

Description: There's also a few other exterior styling tweaks throughout, including the rear decklid and an optional Carbon Exterior Pack. But it's what under the skin where the most vital upgrades have ...

Description: There's a new version of the naturally-aspirated 6.0-liter V12 which now produces 17 percent more horsepower over its predecessor. Now rated at 500 hp and 457 lb-ft of torque, the Rapide S can go...

Jason BrowerJan 23, 2013They have fantastic tuning, the motors are purposely designed to provide a very flat, very smooth torque curve. The engines are never stressed near their limits, they always are comfortably within their margins.

Austin SullivanJan 23, 2013More of a luxury ride rather than a sporty one. Quiet engine and smoothness.

Jesse JalapenoJan 23, 2013I don't mind the grill I have always thought astons had big grills anyways, zoo I don't see a difference

Paul TrahanJan 23, 2013I honestly like the big grill, but then again I was a fan of the latest Aston Zagato.

Shivash SinghJan 23, 2013I dont know i just cant look at this car as a whole car i have to look at individual elements to get the full picture

Description: The interior has been mainly left untouched with the exception of a piano black interior trim package as well as Duotone perforated red and black leather seats. Official pricing hasn't been annou...

Edward GalliganSep 15, 2013Needs to be lower reminds me of a spyker at some angles

Jake DulaFeb 12, 2013It's got normal ground clearance because Astons are cars for gentlemen, not hooning yobos like you lot. This car is at home in any territory, and perfectly comfortable and quick to boot. Try finding those attributes in many other cars these days.

Duncan GibsonJan 24, 2013I liked the skinny front end better, it was a bit more elegant. Still looks great though

Stephen Reed Warren IIJan 23, 2013Needs to be lowered. Reminds me of the new Bentley GT. Not looks wise, but the fact that both cars are too high

Charlie BellJan 23, 2013As much as I love Astons there are a lot of things wrong with this car the grill is too big and ugly excluding the lights I dot like the front of this car as well as that this car is crying out to be lowered
